Some platforms might be redeemable and worth that fight, others I fear are beyond saving in their current form
There’s an algorithmic component here though that is going to make anything like that extremely uphill
Meta has to want to follow Musks as example explicitly. If he look at Musk, that’s a worrying trajectory. Elon Musk specifically boosts his own posts on Twitter over others even if you don’t follow him. He downranks anything with the word cisgender. He boosts accounts that pay him for checkmarks and has taken those checkmarks away from people who criticize him
Yeah it might be worthwhile to try to convince my friends and family to move to another platform instead. I’m still trying to figure out how to change their minds without burning bridges.
